good morning. it's friday, august 29, 2014. welcome to "cbs this morning." president obama admits we don't have a strategy yet to fight the terror group isis. a life-threatening health crisis for joan rivers. nancy o'dell is watching the legendary comic's condition. >> roger goodell said he didn't get it right. the new action to correct course. >> but we begin this morning with a look at today's "eye opener," your world in 90 seconds. >> i don't want to put the cart before the horse. we don't have a strategy yet. >> the white house says no to immediate military action against isis in syria. >> isis militants claim to have carried out a mass execution of

syrian soldiers. >> the president is taking heat from his critics who say he doesn't understand the isis threat. >> this is a pitiful foreign policy and barney fife is in charge. >> it's a full-scale invasion with them fighting along another front in southern ukraine. >> comedian joan rivers rushed to a new york hospital when she was rushed in due to cardiac arrest after a throat procedure. >> her daughter says she is comfortably surrounded by family. >> nfl commissioner roger goodell is admitting his two-game suspension of ray rice was too soft. >> it's not a league to back down from its decisions. for roger goodell to say that in this case says quite a bit. >> the volcano is causing an eruption. a red alert issued for american flights. >> american teen cici bellis is out of the u.s. open. >> it didn't turn out the way i wanted to, but --

>> rob ford is at it again. >> a woman tells her sons she's pregnant. >> what are you thinking. you're having a baby. you have two. >> that's why twitter went nuts yesterday. >> i don't know about a tie with that suit. >> i don't know if you're allowed to cast that stone with your glass house yellow tie. have a great morning. >> arby's. the roast beef people have a brand-new sandwich, the meat mountain. michelle obama said, oh, i give up. >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" presented by toyota. let's go places. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose and norah o'donnell are off but as we've been saying all week, all is well because

anthony mason is here. >> hello again. >> hello again. didn't the week fly by? >> flew. >> i think so too. president obama is considering action against isis and syria but he says there will be no attacks right away. this morning republicans are accusing the president of having no plan to deal with the terror group. >> secretary of state john kerry will go to the middle east next week. his job is to begin a coalition. bill plante's at the white house where the president met last night with his top security aides. bill, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the expectation around here was building that the president was on the verge of order erring air strikes against the islamic militants inside syria, so he made his unscheduled appearance thursday to declare that the time is not yet right to strike isis or as he calls it, isil. >> we don't have a strategy yet. >> reporter: after more than 100 air strikes aimed at stopping

the isis charge in northern iraq, president obama stated that conceding militants there is not enough. >> the violence that's been taking place in syria has obviously given isil a safe haven there. >> before a two-hour meeting with national security staff to consider options in syria, the president told reporters that any u.s. response will require the use of force, but just as important, the support of both other nations in the middle east and congress. >> in order for us to degrade isil over the long term, we're going to have to build a regional strategy. now, we're not going to do that alone. there will be a military aspect to that and it's going to be important for congress to know what that is, in part because it may cost some money. >> but he denied reports that any decision to carry the fight against isil into syria was imminent. >> the suggestion seems to have been that, you know, we're about to go full-scale on an elaborate

strategy for defeating isil, and the suggestion, i guess, has been that we'll start moving forward imminently and somehow congress still out of town is going to be left in the dark. that's not what's going to happen. >> reporter: congressional republicans were quick to criticize the president's remarks. >> to have a press conference to say we don't have a strategy was really shocking given the severity of the threat. >> reporter: white house officials scrambled immediately after the president gave the white house news conference to explain what the president meant was not that he didn't have an overall strategy, only that he was waiting for the military to have a strategy for striking in syria. anthony? >> bill plante at the white house. thanks, bill. at his news conference the president ruled out military action in ukraine saying it will not solve the crisis. nato says there are now at least 1,000 russian troops in eastern ukraine.

this morning russians and russian-backed rebels control several cities. elizabeth palmer is monitoring the fighting from london. elizabeth, good morning. >> good morning. this morning already president vladimir putin has addressed a youth group at home in russia where he said the ukrainians and the russians are practically one people. well, whatever he said, proof is mounting that in a bold escalation, the russian military has sent both troops and heavy fighting equipment into ukraine. the goal seems to be to help pro-russian rebels who were losing ground to the ukrainian army. this, says the ukrainian government, is a russian tank, caught on cell phone camera inside the ukrainian city. and from the air, nato satellites have been capturing even more evidence of russian military presence including field artillery, trucks, and troop carriers. earlier this week the youkrainis

actually captured ten russian pair a troopers and paraded them before cameras but each that wasn't enough to force russia to come clean about their operation. this morning the minister called the evidence conjecture. not once, he said, have any facts been presented to us. the ukrainians who want the russians to get out of their country don't believe him, and neither did the western diplomats and politicians at an emergency meeting of the security council yesterday. samantha power is america's u.n. ambassador. >> every step russia has come before this council to say everything but the truth. it is manipulated, it has on fuss skated, it has outright lied. >> meanwhile the fighting with moscow backing rebel groups against the ukrainian army is ferocious. so far, according to the united

nations, more than 2,500 people have been killed in what appear taos be escalated. western analysts think the end game may be for russia to take a narrow strip off of ukraine to join up with crimea which it seized earlier this spring. >> thank you, elizabeth. joan rivers' family is asked you to keep her in your prayers. she was rushed to the hospital after her heart stopped in the doctor's office. her daughter, melissa, said her mother is resting comfortably. nancy o'dell is with us. it sounds like it's a good thing she was with the doctor. >> definitely. melissa is with her mother now. she flew there yesterday after hearing the news. you know, joan rivers is known as a legend, a ground braker. now she's having to deal with this life-threatening health crisis. legendary comedian joan rivers

is in a medically induced coma at a hospital this morning. the 81-year-old queen of comedy stopped breathing on thursday while having a throat procedure at a clinic on new york's upper east side. according to a dispatch call, rivers wentz into cardiac arrest. she's being treated at mount sinai hospital. >> this is not a comeback business. i see people try to come back. people move on. you must always stay current. >> reporter: rivers appeared wednesday night promoting her book and was booked for a friday night show in red brook, new jersey. it's now been postponed. >> she's a trailblazer. she'serring we want to bring to red bank and to our states. it's close to being sold out. >> reporter: rivers broke the glass ceiling of late night. she got her start in 1966 as a guest on "the tonight show" and served as permanent guest host for years. johnny carson adored her. >> please, are we going go back to that?

no man should ever put his happened up a woman's dress looking for a library card. >> reporter: she's reidentified herself through five decades of ups and downs. >> tell us what you finally picked to wear tonight. >> i just want to know what you have to say this year. i want to hear it now. lasteer you said i looked like a swashbuckler. >> her sharp tongue has kept many of their tongues, many finding themselves the target of her "e!" network show. through it all rivers has retained the ability to laugh at herself. >> i have been pulled so tight i put earrings on my [ bleep ] now. >> we also heard they were going to bring her out of hermetically induced coma this weekend to assess any damage. that was before melissa arrived. they're consulting melissa on

medical decisions made. of course, everyone in hollywood is rallying around joan. larry tweeted go get 'em, girl. that's how we all feel. she's resilient, active, not your typical 81-year-old. certainly all our thoughts and prayers are out to her. >> nancy, she is not your typical 81-year-old and we wish her the best. this morning the giant pacific waves in california are starting to calm down but lifeguards say there's still danger out there. one man nearly drowned thursday at l.a.'s venice beach. he was revived after his pulse stopped. teri okita is on newport beach in southern california. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. 435,000 people have hit the beaches up and down the southern coast of california over the last three days and many have been unprepared for these strong waves. even though the waves are dying down, as you mentioned, lifeguards are still concerned

and still bracing for more rescues over the long holiday weekend. it's been almost 20 years since southern californians have seen waves like these. the once-in-a-lifetime chance to ride these big waves can turn into a near death experience, even for the best swimmers. >> they're fighting rip currents instead of, you know, swimming sideways. there's a lifeguard going out. >> we were with lifeguard captain brian o'rourke. our cameras captured this rescue. >> you can see the rip current. it's that big foamy water. they're going to swim out of that, right there, the current, they'd just be fighting it. >> reporter: a rescue boat raced to the scene as waves crashedover the lifeguard and the swimmer struggled. >> this is where it's dangerous. they have to hold on. >> reporter: after several minutes 23-year-old body surfer luke busey was brought safely to

shore. >> i wasn't in the right spot. i got caught in the water. when it breaks like that, all the foam and the backwash and white caps keeps you under, holds you under. hard to swim up. couldn't breathe. >> couldn't breathe. >> we're all about prevention. >> we would rather prevent it. >> reporter: despite the danger there are no plans to close the beach. lifeguards patrolling the beach here say they've talked to more than 8,000 people warning them of the condition. >> this is what we have. red flag surf. if you don't have fins, we'd appreciate if you didn't go in the world. >> reporter: for surfers who can hold the swell, it's one wild ride. even though the waves are stronger it's the strong riptides that are of most concern for the lifeguards out here. one lifeguard told me 90% of all rescues in newport are caused by people being pulled out of the rip current. anthony? >> thank you, teri.

roger goodell unveiled a tough new domestic violence policy on thursday. >> the league faced a backlash for giving the baltimore rairns' running back a short suh suspension of only two games. he's accused of beating his fiancee, she's now his wife, at a casino in february. amy trask from nbc sports joins us. good morning. >> good morning. thanks for having me. >> the commissioner says he didn't get it right. what are the changes. >> a first offense may result in a six-game suspension. a second offense may result in a lifetime ban, but in addition to the disciplinary system articulated in the policy, it includes a very strong educational program and also a program of support and assistance for players and their families. >> amy, is goodell's about-face

here a response to the public backlash, do you think? >> i've known roger, i've had the pleasure of working with roger, the commissioner, for over a quarter of a century, and i know him to be deeply concerned with the issue of domestic violence, so i don't believe that the response, the new policy articulated yesterday, was solely a response to the public outcry and the image issues that arose in the wake of the ray rice issue. certainly image is very, very important to the national football league. certainly the public outrage over the rice suspension had a part. look, the suspension was inappropriate, the commissioner has acknowledged that, but i believe there's more to it than public relations and image. as i said, i've worked with the commissioner for over a quarter of a century and i know he cares deeply about issues like domestic violence. >> many say he should be applauded for saying, listen, i got it wrong, and i want to

change it. >> absolutely. that's how business has improved. they look at what they've done poorly, they fix it, and they get better. >> all right, amy, thanks for joining us. >> thanks for having me. nascar champ tony stewart is about to break his silence this morning. he'll return to racing this weekend for the first time since he struck and killed a fellow driver three weeks ago. vicente arenas is with us. >> reporter: tony stewart set to race again after sitting out the past three events following the death of kevin ward earlier this month in upstate new york. >> people are still waiting to hear from him. they're waiting to hear whether he saw kevin ward jr. on the track. >> reporter: the two drivers had been fighting for position in a sprint car race when they collided and ward hit the wall. he got out of his car and appeared to be pointing at stewart. several drives passed, but when stewart came around, he struck

ward, tossing him 50 feet. the 20-year-old was pronounced dead at the hospital. >> except for a statement that said he is very upset about what happened that night, we haven't heard anything from tony stewart. >> reporter: investigators have said there's no evidence of criminal intent but declined to share details which could still result in charges. earlier this month ward's father told the imperial standard there's no reason for the crash that killed his son. apparently tony stewart was the only one driving out there who didn't see him, he said. the one person who knows what happened that night is possibly facing ten years in prison. is he going to say what he done? >> this is still a very sensitive issue for the ward family. i think there are a lot of people who are anxious to hear what he has to say when he comes back. a search for a missing pilot is over this morning. he died when his 5-15 jet went

down in virginia on wednesday. the pilot from massachusetts did not eject from the plane as many believe. the f-15 crashed in the mountains of virginia after the pilot reported an in-flight emergency. this morning another airport reports another unscheduled landing after passengers squabbled over a reclined seat. a woman put her seat back, the man behind her got upset. he started arguing a crew member and grabbed his arm. the flight diverted to boston where the male passenger was arrested. a similar incident happened sunday on a united airlines flight. >> nobody seems to win in that situation. the largest volcano's system erupted earlier after several days of underground rumbling. the small explosion took place in a lava field. a red alert is posted this morning for planes flying near the volcano. no ash has been detected but airspace near this volcano is closed. up to 18,000 feet. meanwhile several flights

had to be diverted around new guinea after a volcano erupted. residents said they heard loud explosions and half an inch of ash fell on surrounding areas. schools and businesses were closed in that region north of australia. residents were advised to stay indoors. >> you don't have to ask me twice. aisle stay inside. it's 7:19. ahead on "cbs this morning," private jets, 1%, are grounded on a holiday weekend. oh, no. find o out why even rich

one roll. >> let's get together and feel all right. toronto mayor rob ford danced to reggae music in city council chambers just hours later. he admitted he embarrassed the council this term as he's done before. ford danced in the center of the council chamber and sang along with songs including "hallelujah" and "one love." ford hopes to win re-election in november. >> we'll see what happens. he is a gift that keeps on giving. >> not at all. >> not at all. charlie rose and norah

o'donnell are off. anthony mason is with us. >> even though it's not saturday. coming up, race for ride-sharing supremacy turning into a bittersweet fight. it's brutal. we'll show you the battle between uber and lyft. >> imagine the 1% sitting in traffic like the rest of us this weekend. find out what some wealthy jet-setters blame president obama for grounding their labor day flight. that's ahead. time to show you this morning's headlines from around the globe. the straits times of singapore says malaysian airlines will cut 6,000 jobs. they have desserted the airline after a pair of disasters this year. in march malaysian flight 370 disappeared and later a flight was shut down. they want to make the company profitable by 2017. the "san jose mercury news"

says apple confirms a big month next month. they say wish we could say more. it will happen september 9, 2014. they're supposed to unveil a new phone with a larger screen. >> a new watch maybe? >> something that will measure our bio stats. >> wherever it is it will be a long line. >> that's where charlie will be. the "los angeles times" talks of a new fracking study. a report contends it's a danger to the public health. "the new york times" reports dozens of americans have joined the terror group to join isis. a new downline video group shows brutal attacks. they show militants marching captured soldiers through the syrian desert in their

underwear. the soldiers are later seen dead. a this morning group says 150 were killed. >> that's very tough to look at. terror analysts say those fighters posed the greatest threat to the united states because of their ability to travel freely and blend in. many are recruited through a powerful online media campaign. juliana goldman is in washington with a look at the isis pr strategy. julia juliana, good morning to you. >> good morning. this is a new generation of very sophisticated jihadi propaganda that's only emerged in the last several months. isis is using is cash and militants to recruit and radicalize. this is a western jihadist urging potential isis recruits to come join the fight in syria. >> your families who live here live just like it is back home. >> reporter: it's all part of a high-tech propaganda machine isis has developed to reach out

to militants in europe, canada, and the united states. the terror group now has its own multilingual media arm which is behind the creation and distribution of glossy magazines and highly produced slick videos. isis even uses drones and gopros to appeal to the western eye. and this is a tweet, a short promotional video which shows a softer side of jihad. here a belgian hands out ice cream to excited syrian children. >> you can see messages of camaraderie. >> this is deputy director of media research institute which has been tracking isis on the web. >> the focus of these is very much on, come and join us, it's not all, you know, difficulty and gore and suffering. it's come and join us, join me, and we'll fight the good fight together. >> reporter: a celebrity culture has even emerged around some of these isis fighters.

like this french militant who goes by giton. >> the message is very much here we are at the beach, here we are eating pizza. the guys, it's pizza night. almost on the side it says death to jews. >> and a german rapper who goes by deso dog. >> they're serving terrorist material. >> reporter: rita is a co-founder of site, an intelligence group pushing social media networks to crack down on isis postings. >> these are very inspiring images, 57bds individuals, images that are followed, that are very much celebrities in the west and now they're celebrities of the jihadists. they're all over twitter, incited for killing others. >> twitter has no comments but it has shut down official isis accounts. still these tweets show how easy it is for jihadists to skirt the

system and get their message out. >> reporter: could it really be that the isis is ahead of the united states of america on the p.r. front? >> no. at the end of the day, they don't need big numbers. they're trying to appeal to small numbers, which unfortunately in the terrorism business is all it takes. >> when it comes to policing these social media sites, sources say the social media sites are divided. isis posts also track the militants and their abilities. >> all right, julia na. thank you. may i see, i've about seen you on other cbs shows but this is the first time you've about been on "cbs this morning." welcome. good to have you here. >> thank you. >> i know we'll see you again. google could be the next company to attempt to deliver by drone. the company is working on a fleet of drones to fly packages to their destinations. a recent test flight in australia delivered a first aid kit, candy bars and water to

farmers. it could still, though, take years to get the service ready to go. the program challenges a similar one that competitor amazon is working on right now. the high-tech world is watching a new battle this morning. it's all about commuting, not computing. two ride share companies uber and lyft are taking aim at the traditional taxi industry. they're also using extreme tactics to win your business. nicholas thompson, the editor of new yorker.com covers the tech industry. good morning. >> good morning. >> the battle is getting intense. they're two san francisco company but they're spreading all over the country. >> all over the world. >> what are they trying to do first? >> they're trying to destroy each other, poach drivers from each other, slow down service, copying each other, undercutting each other. this is a vicious, cruel, brutal and fascinating competition right now. >> how bad -- i have to say i love it. how bad is it? >> the main thing that's caused a lot of problems is uber

drivers have been getting into lyft cars and trying to get them to come work for uber. they've been getting bounties if they succeed in doing that. that's a bit of a problem. the other problem, uber calls the car and they realize it's a driver who's already been recruited so they cancel it. there's been thousands and thousands of cancellations of lyft rides because of recruiters. it would be like nbc coming and trying to recruit you and you're missing your hits because of it. it slows things down. it's called operation slog which tells you what's going on here. >> we hear so much about these companies and how much they want to change transport. what is the future for both of them? >> this is why the companies are valued so highly. uber has a valuation of $18 billion which is massive for the tax industry which is a lot smaller. what the plan is to first take over the taxi business, then to take over the moving business, and then eventually to take ore the home delivery business.

so it starts out as a taxi company, competitor taxi company and eventually it becomes a competitor to amazon. that's what the people who buy and invest in uber believe. it becomes just gigantic. >> nick, if you look at the trend among tech companies, it's usually one winner or one large player. is that what's going to happen here? is that why this fight is so intense? >> that's why the fight is so intense. they both believe unless they win or succeed, they can't justify their situation. they won't be the one thing that every has on the home screen of their dirge tall devices and they then use for everything. will it turn out this way? is it necessarily a market that will turn out this way? >> no because there aren't the same networks as there are in other things where really only one company is going to thrive. >> i think i speak for a lot of us when i say we like it. >> and anthony and i are not going to nbc. we're going to stay right here.

crying. his mother assured him he would never, ever, ever be replaced. he wanted to know what kind of baby is it because boys make more noise than girls. >> vocabulary and smart. >> i love that story. president obama flies to westchester county. it's upset some powerful new yorkers. how the president is clipping their wings. >> clipped them he did. >> good morning. >> good morning. when "air force one" arrives, the they'll put the skies over the city of new york on lockdown. corporate planes and private charters and their jet-setting passengers will be the hardest hit just in time for the start of the labor day weekend. this is one of the last flighs s whale force one will make before president obama arrives. starting friday afternoon through saturday she and other planes will be grounded yielding the skies to the much bigger "air force one."

for the wall street titans who regularly depend on these planes for their weekend getaways, the timing could not have been worse. >> several were very upset about it and extremely inconvenienced. they had plans, you know, several weeks ahead of time to get out to their vacations. >> reporter: president of the private aviation company fly the whale says nearly 80 of their passengers were left holding their bags. the company expected to lose at least $10,000 while new york city's airspace is shut down. >> labor day weekend is an important part of the summer. it's our last chance to make money as a company and keep it in reserve for the slower months ahead. >> reporter: on friday as many as six flights an hour take off on manhattan's east side bound for the playground of the rim and the famous. flights to nantucket and

age 30 to 40. >> when you apply this device -- >> i'm trying to figure. what do you do? these two little red dots, do i put them on top of my head? the side of my head? >> this feels like a 1950s sitcom. how does it feel? >> there's not much to it. you hear a little popping but you don't feel it. it's not like you see in the movies where you feel major zaps to the brain. it connects to in the stoudy it was 20 minute days for five days after that they saw a benefit. they started to see a benefit. the key question going forward is how long lit last and what happens if you give it to people who are older with memory disorders. >> this is a pretty significant improvement, david. i mean how close to being available is this? i mean are we months away, years

away? >> well, the device exists but the study to show what happens to alzheimer's patients or people with strokes, that's going to take several years to get to fruition. if the data is dramatic, i imagine it happens a lot quicker. >> all right. i think she wants to hold onto it. you're having so much fun. you have to give it back. >> no. i'm going to send it over to vinita. >> what do you mean? >> gayle's going to be delivering shock therapy by the end of the show. >> dr. agus, thank you. coming up, they say the stack is stacked against them. >> children of the wealthy have their ticket written from the day they're born. they're going to yale, they're going to harvard, they have jobs waiting for them. it's all set in stone. everybody else has to fight for it. >> pollster frank luntz has some really interesting talks about the fears of income inequality.

as we head into labor day weekend, a new rutgers university survey finds more than half of americans are unhappy, worried, or pessimistic about the economy. cbs news contributor and republican pollster frank luntz

addressed these issues with a focus group of 25 people here in studio 57. >> the phrase of 2014, income inequality. you hear it on television all the time, people are talking about it. in the polling that we've done, the majority of americans believe it's true. what do you think? >> the reason there's income inequality in my opinion is because there's no manufacturing in this country. >> that's because all of the jobs have gone overseas because the greed of the corporate executives who make millions of dollars while firing other people who need the jobs. >> the children of the wealthy have their ticket written from the day they're born. they're going to yale, they're going to harvard, they have jobs waiting for them. it's all set in stone. everybody else has to fight for it, and the corporations aren't creating any jobs. >> i have a 27-year-old and i encouraged him after he graduated to leave this country to go find a job.

>> so you would leave the country. >> i lived in australia for a year and i made minimum wage over there. it's about $20 an hour. why would i stay here for $7.50. >> i write you a check for $10 million and here's the catch. you cannot return back to america. you can take anyone with you, you can live in canada, mexico, wherever you want to live across the globe. a check for $10 million, but you cannot return. who would take the money, raise your hands? you see, that just blows me away. you would go and not come back. >> i would go for free right now. i feel like there's no future for me here, as a young adult growing up african-american, i feel like that. >> it breaks my heart. >> it's true. >> i'm doing things i never thought i would do. i have to go to the national guard. i mean i'm willing to serve but i have a college degree.

in europe they pay for your education. canada, they pay for your education also. >> how many of you think the next generation is going to have it even more difficult than this generation, raise your hands? this to me is devastating. >> look. here's the thing. you've got millionaires of corporations interested in their little cut. no one is looking out for america. >> are you nervous for your kids? >> yes, i am. >> what do you think their future will be like under the current system? >> i'm hopeful it will get better. i do worry. i wouldn't take that check from you. i would stay here. >> you'd stay here. >> i still think it's the best country in the world. >> would you take my check? >> no. >> why not? >> i agree with her. i still think it's the best country in the world. i still thing you have an opportunity here. >> what does it say -- i'd like you to answer this as a mom who wants her children to succeed. what does it say when you are so pessimistic that you think your children will be worse off than

you? >> it eats at you, and the only thing i can see is education and praying that businesses will get some tax relief, bring jobs from overseas, and have some jobs for my kids when they're done with school. >> so the tax policy has to change. >> when you say tax policy, you mean tax the rich. >> no. i don't even mean necessarily increase the taxes on the rich. i mean remove the loopholes. you have mayor -- >> do you agree with that? >> yeah, yeah. >> billions and billions of dollars and they pay no tax. >> exxon mobile. >> and google. they all shelter taxes. doesn't matter if they're democrats, republicans, liberals, conservatives, they all shelter taxes. >> last question. is it washington's fault, wall street's fault? who says washington's facility? one. wall street? one.

who says both of them. for the first time in this conversation, we have consensus. >> yay. >> frank luntz is with us. good morn, frank. >> good morning. that was one of the most depressing sessions i have ever done. >> one thing i want to say. i noticed this before the session. that the middle class before this felt they had been left behind and the recession only deepened that. and now we're here. >> the people feel like they're working hard, sacrificing, living paycheck to paycheck and yet it's getting more and more difficult for them and the elites that are supposed to help them are doing nothing for them. big business, big labor, big politics, washington, wall street, it doesn't matter. they have noal lies anymore. no one's trying to protect them and they're fed up. >> you used the word "depressing" to describe it. >> i can't imagine leaving this country. i don't care what you pay me. i leave for three days and i'm homesick and yet these people have given up and that's the key to this. it's no longer that they're angry. we now have a segment -- and i'd

say it's between 15% and 20%. they say, you know what? it will never get better if me and it will never get better for your the country. >> what is the message, though, for policy makers? >> wake up. wake the hell up. and it just agitates me, republican and democrat aside, it doesn't matter what you are, at some point you have to stop tearing each other apart, tearing each other down and do something with the other side that requires compromise, cooperation, because if you don't do it, this anger -- we're going have a whole generation of people that will no longer believe that america is this great country that we all know it is. >> what's distressing in that, though, is this message has been out there, if you've been listening, for quite some time. >> that's the whole point. i don't think people listen. i'm grateful to you all for putting that on the air and putting it on as well as you did because now the average american gets to hear this. the problem is i don't think they tell politicians this.

they always tell them that they're great or they yell at them. they really never tell the truth. that's the truth. >> are politicians listening? >> i'm not convinced of it. i'm hoping we have a great debate season this fall where you get a chance to hear the differences in a positive way, not just tearing them down. >> the cry has gotten a lot louder even though it's been around about the tax breaks and groups it. was really interesting. thank you for sharing. >> thank you. this morning "48 hours" looks as a mysterious death and a family's search for answers. >> i'm peter van zapt. coming up, a businessman dies in singapore did he die or was he murdered and was international espionage involved?

his death had to do with research. >> we were told he was being pressured and he would not do it. he would not go along with the illegal transfer of technology to china. >> reporter: shane was an engineer working for a sing a posh company that had dealings with chinese company that's been declared a national security threat by a national committee. not surprisingly, his death attracted attention. >> we believe our son was murdered. we believe we're uncovering something much bigger than our son. >> mary todd and her family asked repeatedly for the noose found around shane's neck. singapore authorities admit that noose contained the dna of two. it was destroyed by police. >> i think we're singapore's worst nightmare. >> reporter: the singapore government conducted a lengthy

investigation into shane's death and concluded he killed himself because he was depressed. mary todd says, that's nonsense. >> are you two in denial? >> for whatever reasons, maybe with all the pressure at work, that he did take his life? >> this is a profound tragedy, but do we look like people who are in denial? do we not have the evidence to back up what we are saying? do you not believe that we would rather have just had it be a tragedy and gone on instead of fight three countries, china, singapore, and the united states, to bring justice to our son? we are not in denial. >> mary todd is shane's mother. she's in studio 57. her new book is called "hard drive.

and congressman wolf and congressman dans were very helpful, montana and virginia. they weren't. senator was helpful until he became the ambassador for china. >> let's talk about that. when you went into shane's bathroom you could tell it didn't happen the way they said based on the physical evidence. >> yeah. we walked in. he said he put bolts on the wall and ropes and pulleys and everything so i couldn't wait to get to that bathroom. once i did, there were mashable walls. there were no holes in thele roy. the toilet wasn't in the right place and it was a standard sized door. he's 6'1". i couldn't figure out how it happened. >> you say they never gave you the rope that hi 'legendly hung himself with. dy they ever tell you why? >> according to shane's girlfriend, when she found him,

it was a wire around his neck and there was no towel. so when the police -- they said there was a towel and a strap and the tallon strap had malaysian and chinese dna on it. we spent thousands of dollars go to court to retain that evidence, dna evidence and two courts said to dry it and it has since been destroyed. >> mary, we spoke with the state department. officials say they remain at your dispoisal but the suck a pore police have jurisdiction. from what you understand, where could this go now in terms of the courts or the police there? >> well, first of all, the state department in singapore called the inquiry into my son's death fair and transparent and comprehensive. we would like them to rescind that statement. it was a sham. so the state didn't might be saying that, but that's not the case. >> one of the things you and cress tina, your niece who has written this book, that you want to exonerate your son's memory. what do you mean by that? >> 60 years from now when my relatives look at this story, i

want them to know the truth, that my son died an american hero. he did not commit suicide. >> and the country, you think, let you down. >> the country has let us down. >> all right, mary todd.
